Bogorodsk

- a city of tanners, another well-known ancient industrial center of the Nizhny Novgorod region. Located away from the Oka River (8 kilometers), approximately halfway between Nizhny Novgorod and Pavlov.

History of Bogorodsk[edit]

Bogorodsk appeared in the sixteenth century, not yet as a city, but already as a village. The village of Bogorodskoye was formed by settlers who fell into disgrace from Veliky Novgorod under Tsar Ivan the Terrible. Some of the Novgorodians (about three hundred people) were settled on the territory of the Moscow state. Here, on the road located between Murom and Nizhny Novgorod, the settlement of Bogorodskoye appeared. The history of Bogorodsk as an economic center is in many ways similar to the history of Pavlov. Located on the same Moscow-Nizhny Novgorod road, it also from ancient times represented a large settlement, the lack of land of the peasants of which forced them to look for side sources of livelihood. And here “... the Sheremetev landowners (early 19th century) are memorable, who significantly contributed to the development of the fishery.” The emergence of leather crafts here is largely explained by the fact that exiled Novgorodians settled in Bogorodsk (in the second half of the 16th century), well acquainted with leather dressing.

Until the 17th century, similar to Pavlov, Bogorodsk was a palace village, then in 1615 it was granted to Minin “for his great service to Kuzmin” and “Moscow cleansing”, and in 1632, following Pavlov, Bogorodsk became the patrimony of the princely family of Cherkassy, ​​and in the 18th century it became the possession of the Sheremetevs.

At the end of the 18th and beginning of the 19th centuries, when there were about 120 tanneries in Bogorodsk, it was already, like Pavlov, all-Russian. Bogorodsk leather goods (saddlery and mittens, the latter of which were produced up to one million pairs a year), were widely distributed throughout the country.

Raw materials in Bogorodsk were mainly imported from long distances and came from the lower Volga and other south-eastern steppe regions (bought at various auctions, including at the Nizhny Novgorod fair).

Working conditions at the Bogorodsk tanneries were hard labor; Many workers, where they worked, lived there, slept on vats of fermented skin, from which heavy fumes rose.

Pre-revolutionary Bogorodsk, numbering more than ten thousand inhabitants, was a mass of wooden, mostly one-story houses, huddled on a swampy lowland. Industrial buildings interspersed with residential ones, impassable mud on the muddy streets, waste from the leather industry lying everywhere, a river polluted by its waste, a heavy fetid smell that spread far beyond the city - such was the picture of old Bogorodsk.

After the Great October Socialist Revolution in Bogorodsk, on the site of several hundred small semi-handicraft and handicraft leather establishments that bore the loud name of factories, about a dozen large enterprises grew up, which were radically reconstructed and mechanized. For example, the labor-intensive manual ash of leather in vats was replaced by mechanized ash in drums.

In Soviet times, completely new enterprises were built in Bogorodsk - On the consideration of the sketch of the Coat of Arms of the city of Bogorodsk" the sketch of the Coat of Arms of the city of Bogorodsk, presented by the competition commission for consideration, was approved and recommended for approval by the Heraldic Commission of the Nizhny Novgorod Region and the Legislative Assembly of the Nizhny Novgorod Region. An appendix to this Resolution was a description of the Coat of Arms of the city of Bogorodsk:
